WEEKEND

Critically acclaimed lo-fi/shoegaze act Weekend burst onto the scene with their 2010 debut, Sports. With their latest release, Jinx, the band further expand on their indie-rooted sound, infusing more prominent elements of post-punk, and channeling an aesthetic that is all at once throwback and contemporary. They have a lot of buzz surrounding them, and for good reason. Come to The High Watt tonight to see what it’s all about.

FUTURE UNLIMITED

We maintain that local post-punk/synth rockers Future Unlimited are one of Music City’s best-kept secrets. They channel elements of acts such as Depeche Mode and New Order, while painting lush and sweeping textures, giving them a thoroughly unique aesthetic of their own. Check out their Shia LaBeouf-directed video for “Haunted Love,” below.

BOWS AND ARROWS

Nashville lo-fi indie act Bows and Arrows land closer in sound to Weekend, though skew heavier on the indie rock and shoegaze side, and with more subdued tendencies. They’re a perfect group to kick off this exciting bill, and one worth showing up early for!

Weekend, Future Unlimited, and Bows & Arrows will perform TONIGHT at The High Watt. The show is 18+, begins at at 9PM (doors at 8PM), and tickets are available for $10.
